FEED THE FUTURE ACCELERATOR

Smallholder farms across Africa grow over two-thirds of the region’s food. But
extreme weather has decimated crops, while yields are declining due to outdated
seeds, inefficient practices, and less predictable rainfall patterns — all of
which are leaving farmers with less to sell and less to eat. Investing in
agriculture is up to four times more effective at fighting poverty in low-income
countries than investing in other sectors. As such, the United States is seizing
on a unique window of opportunity to increase our investments in Southern and
Eastern Africa, a region of endemic hunger hotspots yet great potential to drive
agricultural growth.

We are doubling down on Feed the Future’s key mandate to build a more resilient
global food system through the Feed the Future Accelerator, an effort to deepen
our partnership with countries in the region while driving long-term gains in
poverty, malnutrition, and hunger reduction. Through a rigorous analysis, USAID
identified a subset of Feed the Future focus countries — Malawi, Tanzania, and
Zambia — to pilot the Accelerator effort. These countries are poised to drive
agricultural growth and create opportunities that not only meet their domestic
needs, but help neighboring countries stabilize their food security, strengthen
markets and build system-wide resilience.

While the United States is committing additional investment in Malawi, Tanzania,
and Zambia, we cannot do it alone. To help these countries leverage trends for
growth and unlock their full potential, we are working with host governments,
other donors, and private sector businesses to increase agriculture and food
system investments, support policy reforms, and strengthen market and commercial
linkages to boost regional food trade. By increasing our investments in the
region, together with our partners, we will help drive inclusive,
agriculture-led growth that supports a new regional breadbasket — creating a
source of food closer to the people who need it the most.
